Cannabis reform is moving one step closer to reality at the federal level, with a committee hearing on a bipartisan bill to expand banking services for legal marijuana businesses expected to take place at the end of the month, according to multiple people directly involved in the process....
Legalization unfortunately doesn’t always mean expunging past records. And let’s be real, the GOP are greedy enough to make money from legal weed in one state and make more money from private prisons in another.
Librarians and teachers are doing the good work out there. I wish our society (US) would do a better job of recognizing how important they are and just let them do their job without having to deal with all this culture war bullshit
Firefox + uBlock Origin is a godsend. Shout outs also go to DuckDuckGo and the Privacy Badger add-on
Fwiw, my experience with Firefox has been so good that I’ve started using Pocket and Thunderbird as well (both also developed by Mozilla). There’s a bit of a learning curve, but resources are easily found online, and the privacy and customization benefits easily outweigh the hiccups, imo
Not particularly. I kind of like Lemmy, and the Fediverse in general, growing organically as people discover it, rather than it being the shiny new thing
I have noticed that alot of people think the majority of people are stupid based on the things they read online or maybe even experience in real life but I think that there is better explanation than just assuming people are stupid....
I’ve used Plex off and on for a few years, getting more into it as streaming prices have been rising. What direction are they taking that you don’t particularly like? I’ve also seen Kodi - which I’m intrigued by. Any thoughts there?
Oh, I wasn’t trying to be a dick either! I’m with you on hating grocery shopping haha

i was born in the mid-90s, so i only have vague memories of a lively mall. but i remember playing on the indoor playground, eating teriyaki chicken samples, and even trick or treating at the mall once as a kid. now there have been multiple shootings there in the past few years

Anyone else mildly annoyed that Lemmy does not show up in Google search results (not indexed), and that the rock and roll & motorcycle guy are higher up in the search rankings?
Wondering if it’s just me. What will it take for Lemmy to be higher in the search results / public consciousness?
People aren't stupid.
